PSoC™ 5, 3 & 1 Forum Discussions

Hello all,

I'm working on PSoC-3 and using it for controlling fans. I am in a dilemma on the choice of the components. I could either go with PWM block or the fan controller block. I have read the data-sheets but PWM block doesn't accept a tacho input. For my application I want to monitor the status of the fans and regulate the speed using a closed loop mechanism.

Is the fan-controller component made using the internal configurable blocks of PSoC or is it a separate chip that needs to be interfaced with the GPIO of PSoC-3? Also, if I were to implement a closed loop control using PWM how would I go about with the design?

I want to generate an 8-bit TTL word using PSOC. For this I have to be able to turn on up to 8 pins simultaneously. How could I do this?

I'm using the mcu CY8C20236A, programing on PSOC designer. It seems easily to use rich modules on PSOC designer, such as LED/LCD driver and button captures. But I can't find the way to configure the P0_4 as an input pin. How can I do?

Pls help me, Thanks!

Hi,

I have trouble programming the CY8C29666-24PVXI. I am using the PSoC Programmer 3.29.0 and can't select the CY8C2xxxx Device Family. There is no option there. Do I have the right software to program the microcontroller, or do I need to install something else?

Hi All.

I am trying to program the EEPROm memory of a PSoc5 with a MiniProg4 using ppcli functions from a DOS shell.

The addresses that I want to program are from 0x00 to 0x09 preserving the other values that are in the EEPROM memory. This is the script that I am using:

GetPorts
OpenPort "MiniProg4 (CMSIS-DAP/BULK/0313078B02237400)" .
SetPowerVoltage 3.3
PowerOn
SetProtocol 8
SetProtocolConnector 1
SetAcquireMode Reset
DAP_Acquire
DAP_WriteIO 0x00 0x4F
DAP_WriteIO 0x01 0x4D
DAP_WriteIO 0x02 0x32
DAP_WriteIO 0x03 0x31
DAP_WriteIO 0x04 0x30
DAP_WriteIO 0x05 0x31
DAP_WriteIO 0x06 0x30
DAP_WriteIO 0x07 0x30
DAP_WriteIO 0x08 0x30
DAP_ReleaseChip
PowerOff
ClosePort

this works without errors but the values are not in memory. What am I doing wrong? Please can you point me to the correct way to do this. 

Hello,

I have a PSOC5 Prototyping kit (https://www.cypress.com/documentation/development-kitsboards/cy8ckit-059-psoc-5lp-prototyping-kit-onboard-programmer-and) and I want to develop a robot based on that MCU.  I need a 3D Model for this board in order to see if it fits in my enclosure.

I tried opening the .brd file in Allegro but the 3D model is unusable.

Where could I get a 3D model of it?

Thanks!

Hi,

I need to configure a PSoC 1 into a precision 1 mA constant current source. I am sure that has been done before and someone can help me. I'd appreciate it. Thanks

Dear Cypress Community,

I am using an evaluation board for PSoC 5LP (CY8CKIT-059) and trying to downmix a signal.

My aim is to downmix a noisy signal that contains a very small sine wave (1mVpp) whose frequency is known, e.g., 10 MHz. The DC value I would get after the mixing+filtering tells me if that sinewave is present in the signal or not.

I was able to achieve this only for sine waves of max. 4 MHz using the mixer component of 5LP. 

Question: Is it possible to mix with a frequency higher than 4 MHz so that I can downmix a 10 or 15 MHz signal?

I ask this because I do not want to include/pay a separate (I-Q) demodulator in my design. 

Cheers,

Matija.
